I ordered a handful of passive components (resistors, capacitors, etc) and most of my order arrived. But there were also 92 pcs of an IC that I did not order. I called to find out if they wanted those back (they looked expensive) and they did... and about 3 days later my accounts payable department received an INVOICE for hundreds of dollars for those items.

The items I never ordered. That they only knew about because I was nice enough (dumb enough) to call and say, "Hey - do you want these back?"

The fun thing is that they can send your accts payable department an invoice in just 3 days but it will take them 2-3 weeks to process the return when you ship the things back with their label. They don't even have the decency to put 30 day or 60 day terms on the invoice, its "pay upon receipt" and I bet a lot of times, it does get paid.

Consider using Mouser instead. They're my new go to, their website is easier to navigate and they seem like they might even be run by people with a soul.

A colossal waste of time. They don't screen sellers or follow up with them to ever see if items are still available. If you buy something the seller gets 7 days to ship. When they don't, you have the option to try and contact them and then, if they don't reply, you can finally cancel the order.

Meanwhile think of the time you wasted & the opportunities you didn't pursue because you thought you had a great purse or shoes or whatever on the way to your house. There is no way to rate sellers and let people know that "this person doesn't ever SELL anything - they just list things and then ignore all communication, tying your money up for at least 10 days."
